The OSI model describes how a network should be arranged. Which of the layers below defines the media access method and the message frame structure?
There are several layer within the a typical DCS., each with it's own responsibilities. Which of the levels below is responsible for the connection to the control system performed?
Ethernet/IP is based on a protocol that the higher OSI layers of DeviceNet uses. Which of the answers below is the correct acronym for this protocol?
In the process conditions model, there are transition points between the stages of operating conditions. Which of the answers below is the transition point between the abnormal to shutdown conditions?
SCADA control systems are similar to other control system, but the components for a SCADA system vary slightly. Which of the components below would be designed for smaller processes, therefore having limited scalability?
Modbus has standard command codes to allow the master to access information from it's slaves. Which of the commands below would be used to request the content of the slaves holding registers # 40108?
A typical HMI has several subsystems attached to it. Which of the subsystems below would be involved in visual indications of data?
The limits of a OUT parameter status field has several different classifications. Which of the classifications below can be described as the indication of a parameter under the LRV?

In a typical GUI, values take one of four generic indicators. Which of the indicators below would best used where discrete data needs to be provided, but a simple colour change will suffice?
There are several layer within the a typical DCS., each with it's own responsibilities. Which of the levels below is responsible for the seamless merging of process control information and managing the business side of production?
There are a collection of standards that defines the access control for wireless Ethernet. Which one of the answers below is the standard for initiating a WLAN?
There are several common components of signal converters. Which one is best described as reduction of overall error introduced by the input and/or output signals?
